Celebrating over 20 years in business, the first Learning Express store was opened to help fund a pre-school in Massachusetts and has grown to become the nation’s largest franchisor of specialty toy stores.

A Learning Express franchise is an opportunity for you to have a fun career that you’re sure to love and to have the success you deserve. Each Learning Express store provides toys that encourage curiosity, creativity and have exceptional play value. Our stores offer an extraordinary shopping experience with a knowledgeable sales staff offering expert advice on choosing the perfect toy, for every child, for any occasion. The product mix is carefully selected from manufacturers around the world. A birthday gift registry, complimentary gift-wrapping, civic fundraising and consumer VIP programs make each Learning Express store an integral part of the community. Learning Express also developed ExpressCodesTM, an exclusive program that offers a simple solution to finding appropriate toys that best fits the developmental needs of children.
